5 Fighting Games to Look forward to for the Enthusiast- Thoughts From The Dojo # 16

Gary of GamingVice.net wrote

"To think I thought as a fan of the fighting game genre that last year was a fluke and that Tekken 6, Street Fighter IV, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, The King of Fighters XII, and BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger were all we were in for in this “dying” genre. Well it seems as if the fighting game genre is here to stay and minus the arcades, everything is just like the old days, the Japanese have the games for months and then we pick them up later."

We've rounded up a few PS3 games that show serious potential for big price jumps over the next few years. Could these reach "Holy Grail" status?

I have a friend who still has a sealed copy of Folklore. I’m sure it’s worth more now than it was when it released but I’m not sure how much more.

Bought it for $5 at Walmart. I have yet to play it. But I did open it to look at it. Heh.

phoenixwing1146d ago

the game is actually good. I'd rather buy and play it than keep a sealed copy

Indigon1146d ago

Yeah I gave my brother my PS3 for free with a lot of games but I kept Folklore.

Teflon021146d ago

Folklore is an amazing game. Should have bought 2 copies. 1 to play and one to keep

Seraphim1146d ago

yeah I still have a sealed copy of Folklore too. I almost never do this but I had originally rented it. One day I saw it for like $20 at Walmart so picked up a copy. Always meant to re-play it but just never did. I think in part because it never got trophy support[?]. It was an interesting and unique game that didn't get the love it deserved.

I see Trails of Cold Steel II is tagged. Not sure where PS3 prices sit but the PS4 version of both Trails I and II were around $140 as recently as a little over a month ago. Ended up buying both of them digitally then buying III and IV on disc. Shame I kept putting off buying them. Just a couple months prior you could still get them both for about $45 each. Anyway I'm almost finished with II and hopefully be playing III and IV next.

I would suggest using price charting to evaluate the value of a past game.
https://www.pricecharting.c...
value for the game new is 60$

Hawk1986661146d ago

Its not worth much, about £20.

monkey6021146d ago

I want Folklore. I've been trying to find it for some time now. It's one of the only games set in Ireland so I've been busting to play it some time

And wait for emulation and/or till their PS3 dies?

franwex1146d ago

3D Dot Game Heroes is a cool game that may soon go up in price too. I enjoyed it.

Indigon1146d ago

That's one that has been quite hard to find for some time.

Godmars2901146d ago (Edited 1146d ago )

At least you didn't own ALL Panzer Dragoon entries only to sell them all on ebay.

Don't talk to me about seller's regret...

nommers1146d ago

I'm so glad I kept my copy of this game.

Soy1146d ago

Great game, lots of fun - and definitely tougher to find. I'm glad I kept mine.

Teflon021146d ago

Glad I still have it. One of my fav games that gen

PS1, PS2 and PS3 BC right now is pointless. The top games are extremely overpriced or aren't available anywhere anymore. The best that can happen is Sony putting all the games on the PSN and/or PS Now. That way we all can play the classics, with trophies and some optimizations.

Godmars2901146d ago

Pointless, unless you have a 2st stage production model PS3.

One have to get fixed, but still, I've got it.

gold_drake1146d ago

exvuse me
i still play games on my ps2.

Gardenia1146d ago

That's because you only think about yourself. 90% of gamers don't have PS1, PS2 or PS3 games lying around. What do think is going to happen when there is BC and games like Vagrant Story, MGS, Suikoden 2 will be on sale? The few that are will be sold for hundreds of Euro's/Dollars.

Digital is the only option for everyone to be able to play those games.

gold_drake1146d ago (Edited 1146d ago )

ooff yea im only thinking about myself by playing my ps2 games haha.
the whole point about my reply was that, BC is not pointless. alot of ppl still have their old games mind you.

HankHill1145d ago

Nobody agrees with you so I guess you're the one only thinking about themself.

TheColbertinator1146d ago

Still have the Neptunia box sets unopened. Every year they get more valuable

Every Marvel vs. Capcom Character, Together At Last

Artist Chris Cayco, who we’ve featured a few times before on Kotaku, grew up playing Marvel vs. Capcom (and Marvel vs. Street Fighter) games. His tribute to this, which took him over 175 hours, was to combine every single character to ever appear in Capcom’s crossover series in the one enormous image.

PurpHerbison1550d ago

Love art like this. Good stuff.

PhoenixUp1550d ago

Makes me despise Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite that much more

So much wasted potential

Every Capcom Vs. Game Ranked

As common as it is today, it is hard to believe that there was a time where gaming franchises crossing over was just a pipe dream. Capcom broke down the wall, but they took the combination of some of the most unlikely of franchises and made it the norm.

Whether it was a colossal successful partnership with Marvel Comics or a collaboration with rivals Namco and SNK, the “Vs.” series brought unforgettable experiences to the fighting genre.

They should make a collection of all of them, for this gen or the next

PhoenixUp1677d ago

The 90s was a time when videogame IP established themselves heavily to the point where a lot of major companies could start doing crossovers

MIDGETonSTILTS17345d ago

MvC3 did NOT have a larger roster than 2…
